SHL/Allsvenskan 2024-2025

[Yozhik v tumane]

Just curious .... does someone have a link I can use for daily shl games for starting goalies ,lineups etc...

I’d like one link for that purpose too, actually. For my fantasy team, I’m going between teams’ instagram pages checking lineups 1-2 hours before faceoff. I don’t know of any site that posts all teams’ lineups before games.

for example here

Thank you ... theres no games today so I'll check tomorrow to see if they show starting goalies etc..

I bet sometimes shl games in the afternoon when I'm checking prospects from the wings but I never know the starting goalies or if there's injuries

Sometimes I take the much better team with spread against a horrible team and the horrible team destroys them which further convinces me sports are rigged or I'm missing some gameday info lmao

Either way I'm sure theres info out there on gameday I just cant find it. Hopefully someone knows of a site that does that

It’s more about that the better teams aren’t fully focused every night in the regular season. Makes it hard to predict when they will be on their game or not. You see the same thing in the NHL. Chicago, San Jose etc sucks but on the right night they beat the best teams.

@vorky

Thanks for the link. How soon prior to games are the lineups posted, usually?

I’ll probably try vorky’s link tomorrow, I’d wager teams are obligated to share their lineups with the Swedish Hockey Federation in due time prior to games and hopefully they update their match pages as soon as possible thereafter.

On Instagram and other social media, you usually receive some insight into players missing in the comment sections, since fans always ask about such and such being off the roster and people with local news subscriptions might share if it’s injury, illness, family reasons, etc, and how many games he’s likely to miss.

With regards to betting, I’d say the SHL’s usually a fairly even league from top to bottom. Modo’s been the last place team for most of the season, but they sit a mere two regulation wins from a playoff berth. This season has a pretty clear top-two of Brynäs and Färjestad, then there’s a gap to places 3-5, and a similar gap to basically the rest of the field. Upsets are bound to happen with this much parity, plus it’s a pretty low-scoring league with tactically sound systems all around and few game breakers.

I haven’t paid close attention to Modo this season, but last year when they were newly promoted, they didn’t really have the player material to compete in the long run (of course they did avoid relegation which is the main objective for promoted HA teams not named Brynäs, as usually they haven’t had equal opportunity as SHL teams have to compete for player acquisitions). What made them somewhat competitive especially early on I felt were their tactics that were fun and I’d say kind of novel in the SHL but more akin to NHL hockey, where you’re taking shots from almost anywhere. I thought they reminded me of the NHL Hurricanes with their opportunistic shot taking.

I don’t have any great betting tips. When Färjestad’s starter was out and they had to play 19 year old Italian rookie Damian Clara a ton, they were in for a few upset losses. I tend to spend like a dollar per match day on a number of bets going in, and there’s almost always a tie or two and there’s almost always a couple of upsets.

I can not tell you. Guessing it is similar as with other leagues, so some 30 minutes. This link is for a website of the Swedish Ice Hockey Association, you can find there also Allsvenskan, & other leagues (various age groups), plus games of SWE NT. You can check any game, just go to schedule.

Other option is to visit the official website of the SHL.

I totally forgot to check the site today cause woke up late and just took skeleftea again cause of pellikka and nygaard seems that I jinxed them cause I keep taking them and they keep losing since pellikka returned from the world juniors lmao

Wasnt the case today but for some reason teams high on the standings keep losing to bottom feeders when I bet which I why asked lol

Ya thanks for the tip I think I'll have to start taking more upsets than I do and bet when games started and teams are behind I've noticed a few 6$ teams come back down 2 goals in the first (not just shl hockey though)

stats.swehockey.se usually posts lineups 90 minutes before the start of the game. Sometimes it takes a few minutes extra for the arenas to report the lineups.

Thanks for that , tried checkin but could just see season statistics from both teams. I'll check in an hour if goalies and lineups are posted

Go here:

SHL | stats.swehockey.se

stats.swehockey.se

There’s a link under the starting time for the game you want details on (ie. Linköping 19.00 Luleå, click on ”19.00”), and then you can look at lineup and other information. Beats me why they can’t post the same information under the ”Game Preview” link, but it’s an old interface.

Quick question, does anyone know if Örebro still holds Luka Radivojevič's rights? There was no mention of mutual termination from what I seen when it was announced. I was curious, because supposedly Växjö had first dibs on Sylvegård when he came back to Europe

Yes, Luka Radivojevic is under contract with Örebro who according to news reports agreed to let him go to the USHL on loan. Earlier reports claim Örebro hoped that provided he’d showed good progress, he would return to the club following the WJCs, though this hasn’t materialized. Apparently Radivojevic has decided to play in the NCAA for Boston College next season.

Sylvegård is under contract with Växjö and has to play it out before he can move to another club in Europe.

Thanks! Is there any sort of website that keeps track of who is under contract with an SHL team, but is currently playing in another league? Not referring to official loans of course, those are already tracked on Eliteprospects

Not that I know of! Eliteprospects as you say tend to keep track of loans, and I also think you can see which players are under contract on their team pages, however with exceptions such as players who are in the NHL system. Oscar Eklind signed two years with Luleå last season, but signed a two-way contract with the Flyers having played one year. He’s not listed on Luleå’s roster for this season, and I guess it’s possible his contract was terminated by activating his NHL clause, but I would assume that if he would return to Europe right now, Luleå would have ”first dibs” on him. But I couldn’t say for sure that the contract situation works the same there as it did for Sylvegård.

I don’t think there’s any database for the intricacies of SHL players’ contracts for a couple of reasons. SHL salaries aren’t public information, we usually don’t know what they earn unless a) they get suspended and fined, as the fines are based on the individual player’s salary; b) they spend enough time in the country to pay taxes, since Swedish tax releases are entered into public domain, or (if I understand it correctly); c) the player has a standard junior/entry level contract, which is a 3 year contract they automatically are offered once they’ve played 100 minutes in the SHL. Junior contracts are collectively bargained and you can read details online and (I assume) calculate junior players’ earnings from that. The base salary I think is pretty low, but they earn a bunch of bonuses based on ice time, stats, awards, etc.

It’s mostly through media reports we sometimes get insights into details in particular player contracts. You sometimes hear things like “Player A will remain with the club for 2024-25 unless he decides to activate the option to move abroad”. I think it’s fairly common for contracts to include a clause that allows the player to sign with a team in another league prior to the final season of the deal. A few years back, I recall Juhani Tyrväinen negotiated a contract extension with Luleå early, as he was receiving offers from Switzerland and had an option, but wanted to stay in Luleå with the assurance they weren’t going to move on from him after the season.
